Vetiver

Vetiver

Vetiver, a member of the grass family, is grown for many reasons. Unlike other grasses, the root system of Vetiver grows down, making it ideal for helping to prevent erosion and providing soil stabilisation. Vetiver has a rich, exotic, complex aroma that is used extensively in perfumes. Due to Vetiver’s calming, grounding effect on the emotions, it is an ideal oil to use in massage therapy. It can also be rubbed on the feet before bedtime to promote a sense of relaxation, can be used to flavour drinks and be taken internally.

Primary Benefits

Calming, grounding effect on emotions.

Great for relaxing baths and massages.

Uses

Add 1–2 drops to tea or hot drinks during winter time.

Use as a massage oil to calm emotions.

Take a warm bath with a few drops of Vetiver essential oil for deep relaxation.

Diffuse with Lavender, doTERRA Lavender Peace®, or doTERRA Balance® to provide a sense of balance while calming emotions.

Use a toothpick to help get the desired amount out of container if Vetiver is too thick to get out of the bottle. A little goes a long way.
